    Worth buying another .30 cal to save on reloading tools

    Thank you for the advice. Very helpful. I have a lot to learn and excited to dive in! Aside from dies, would there be other components that I could share between two carriages? If not I think I’ll focus my reloading on my .300 win and then get another rifle with lots of factory ammo options for...

    Worth buying another .30 cal to save on reloading tools

    I own a .300 win, looking to get another rifle so my brother/wife can hunt with me. Plus who doesn’t want another rifle... would it be worth getting another .30 cal so that when I commit to reloading I don’t need extra dyes etc? I don’t really know what I’m talking about, just trying to be...

    Optics Planet Refund/Returns?

    took me over a month to get a refund on a product they hadn't even shipped to me yet. Got marked as ship twice, they have no idea what's going on over there. Worst case you can dispute with your credit card company but if you threaten that they should give you your money back

    Domestic dog / coyote interactions?

    Was out hunting hogs when a pack jumped a duck hunter's dog a few weeks. They're getting bolder here in Texas, I've seen them go after dogs in suburban neighborhoods as well.

    Issues with buckstalker northwest magnum

    Picked up the NW magnum recently. Have tried it with shuetzen and CCI caps but neither will ignite on the first strike. Have cleaned the nipple, no effect. I sharpened the firing pin but that may have been a mistake. Now the caps won’t go off at all even after 3 strikes but the cap itself is...

    Texas hog management

    Damn. Not even with consistent hunting of the same heard? What about trapping? Would love to help some people out, it’s crazy seeing how much land they can chew through.

    Texas hog management

    Wondering if anyone on rokslide needs “help” knocking down some hogs on their property. I’ll handle carcass disposal, totally game for meeting up with some more members as well. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post!

    Winchester Supergrade vs. Weatherby Mark V?

    Have a Winchester Featherlight in .300 WM, a little disappointed with the play in the action. When the bolt is closed there are no issues, but lots of wiggle when open. For my next rifle, I am looking at something nicer, hopefully in .243 win or something comparable. What are your opinions on...

    Feral Hog Meat Care

    Seems like a lot of bigger hogs are less muscle dense than the 100-200 pounders. Unlike some other animals. Big ones get fat and lazy lol

    How often are you predator versus “meat hunting”

    Dropped a coyote this weekend with the 12ga while I was out looking for hogs in East Texas. Man is it a thrill to stalk a predator like that! How often do you actively seek out predators? Or shoot them by happenstance? I like bringing home meat but it’s clear that coyotes are a big problem right...

    Feral Hog Meat Care

    Thank you for all of your advice. I like the idea of not soaking it in water Tartan, I think I will try that. I am hunting in East Texas in between timber and ag fields, so hopefully they have been eating well! Also braising and then grilling seems like a great idea for the lean rib meat.

    Feral Hog Meat Care

    Looking for some advice on feral hog meat care. I understand due to their hide and fat it's important to field dress them quickly. My question is, what do you do when the meat is in your kitchen? Do you dry or wet brine? What meat do you grind? Do you make sausages or burger patties? I have...
